Revision as of 07:21, 27 February 2014
Hi there, and welcome to my user page! My nickname is Bluescreenofdeath, but you can call me Amy, and I'm a Nethack player (who would have thought?). My favorite variant is Slash'EM, and while I'm not a devteam member, I decided to form my own one-man devteam for a variant that I'm calling "Slash'EM Extended". Dunno whether Slash'EM's original devteam would approve of this but since it's a free software I hope they won't mind.
Now, the aim of my variant is to add even more variation to the game than Slash'EM does already, and also try to make the later parts of the game more challenging while reducing the risk of experiencing an early-game YASD. Actually I'm quite a bad player, the farthest I've ever managed to go was the Castle where a master lich took me out with a summoning storm, and I didn't ever beat any quest nemesis either in more than one hundred games played (but I royally got my butt kicked by Master Kaen a few times). You can watch me play Slash'EM here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG9osWekarI (with German voice commentary since German is my native language).
Development news: IMPORTANT NOTICE: The version from 26 February 2014 had a really obnoxious bug that made the game unwinnable (parts of Wizard Tower, Vlad's Tower and Yeenoghu's lair were missing due to some sadistic compiler tool programming with arbitrary limits for the # of level files), but this has been fixed now. Also: The Geek role has been added, along with lots of other stuff from NetHack-The Next Generation, including heisenbugs, rings of timely backup, wands of acid, scrolls of undo genocide, the Geek quest and many more! All the new items should be working now. --Bluescreenofdeath (talk) 07:31, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
For a full overview of my variant's new features, go here: Slash'EM Extended
The current version of Slash'EM Extended is available for download here: https://app.box.com/s/bjmryzddy3t7llv6jekb (version numbers and changelogs will be implemented in a future version. :-)
Oh yeah, and here's my worst embarrasing YASD: http://abload.de/img/eyalsodesisjetztabernakkbr.png
